Search for Missing Covelo Man Continues
The Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office continued their search today for 58-year-old Paul Duran who has been missing for as much as a week on a remote piece of property on Mina Road in the Covelo area.
On January 10, family found Duran’s ATV on a “remote part of the property” with a flat tire.
According to a post on the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Facebook page, “Yesterday’s search was unsuccessful utilizing several Mendocino County Search & Rescue volunteers and California Highway Patrol’s H-16 helicopter from Redding, California. Today’s search continues with several Mendocino County Search & Rescue volunteers aided by specially trained search dogs.”

Hoping that he is hunkered down somewhere safe waiting for help. Thankfully this is a southern storm and temps should be well above freezing at night.
Does anybody know how he died? Was it foul play or was it wild animals? I am very familiar with this area.
